    I will probably rent it cause I wanna see Panna in action again, but there is no way I would pay that ridiculous price of $25 plus tax at the store.

    it might be worth it for the laugh factor. just watch it in Thai language if you want the best it has to offer.

    please for the love of god do NOT watch it in english dubbed. or you will be sorry.

    granted some of the choreography isnt too bad, its just the overwhelmingly horrible story that burrows under your skin and urinates in your eyeballs.

    I enjoyed it

    It was horribly cheesy, but you can't be a kung fu film fan unless you have a taste for cheese. The choreography is classic Panna Rittikrai - more knee shots are thrown in the first fight scene (which starts immediately - no messing around with plot or anything) than in a dozen other chop sockies. Panna has a starring role as a villain, which he nails. Dan Chupong isn't as charismatic as Tony Jaa, but he's got great knee strikes. There's giants, midgets, qi blast combat, riding rockets like surfboards, a weird courtship staged around menstrual blood, cannibalism, and a lot of fight scenes. It's not the best film from Baa Ram Ewe, but it's still very entertaining. If you take it too seriously, you'll hate it. If you watch it with some buddies and some beer, you'll be entertained.

    It was bad.
    Just watched the rental and the dubbing is terrible.
    I would rate this as a bad C grade ma flik.
    The action was at times predictable and boring.
    Dissapointing coming from the same camps as Ong bak.

    Sorry to vary the subject, but how does Born to Fight compare to this? I'm considering getting BTF, but would like to know if it's really worth it at all.

    I won't be getting Dynamite Warrior.

    I loved Born to fight (2004). i give it a rating of 3.5/5. The story sucks, but the stunts are easily some of the best you will ever see. watching it is one hell of a rush. I showed it to a friend who isn't big into MA movies, but he likes crazy stunts, and he told me it was the greatest movie he had ever seen. No kidding. Here is a review I did for it- http://www.amazon.com/Born-Fight-Nap...6031509&sr=1-1
